About Sanctuary Hill Retreat

A wellness retreat at 109 Veale Road in Ridgewood, New Plymouth, set in natural surroundings, that blends yoga, somatics, sound and nature in its programmes. The website says the retreat has over 15 years' experience, and offers retreats, workshops, courses, sound journeys, movement classes and energy work. It also offers guests a place to stay, and invites people to book a stay through the website. The website says it runs a newsletter, and lists a recorded meditation course for those who want to begin with meditation.

The website shares a testimonial from someone who is fairly new to yoga and does not think of themselves as a yoga type. They say the environment is welcoming and supportive for all levels. The retreat describes its approach as a nurturing space to slow down, listen deeply and return to one's own wisdom, and says it welcomes people of all levels. Whether you are new to yoga or deepening your practice, the programmes are designed around movement, breath and nature.
